At just shy of seven months old, Alex did his first crawling today. He has been trying for a while now but usually ended up scooting backwards. Today, he finally found success moving forward. Here is a video of his first crawling. Shortly after he figured out crawling he made a beeline for the cat food, tipping over the dish. We are working on a new cat food location.
Yesterday we went to Halloween party for babies which was just down the street from our house. We walked because it was so close, but it was pouring rain, luckily we have big umbrellas. Alex, who was in his bear costume, fell asleep on the way there. It with a group of moms that Julie goes out to lunch with on Wednesdays. It was a lot of fun, and it was great for me to meet everyone.
We’re home! We came home yesterday evening and had an enjoyable sleepless night last night. Alex loves to feed. We’re having a great time getting to bond with him. No visitors please. If you would like to bring some food or help with some chores, let us know! You’re welcome to do that, as long as you are healthy.
Happy Birthday! Our baby was born on Monday April 14th at 3:54 PM. It weighed in at 8 pounds 8 ounces and was 20 inches in length. His name is Alexander.
Julie is doing great. She and Alexander have to stay in the hospital until tomorrow afternoon. Visitors are welcome to come and see Julie, visiting hours are 11 AM – 9 PM.
